on Baramus there has been relative tranquility for the last thousand years, great cities were forged and and amazing advances in medicine were made all was peaceful but somewhat dull, so they decided to arrange eight combat teams called the vangaurds, in this 4 people fought each other or whatever the game specified and all was well the nations were happy and young children aspired to be in those games. since then the games have grown considerably, now numbering in the hundreds but the original intent remained the same for the pure entertainment of the people. all was well untill the emperior died and his twin sons began arguing over who should ascend the throne. chaos soon broke out as the retainers for the elder brother, mercurio, forcefully took the castle and asigned the gaurd to ar all entrances. Odeysus, his younger brother(by .05 of a second) was left with nothing and outraged called upon the vangaurd teams. they in turn fought with all the vigor and asteem they could untill at last the castle stood in shambles and the king realizing that his flaw was allowing his brother to live. now he hunts anyone who has not sworn loyalty to him and burns them in the name of the thrown. Odeysus and whats left of the vangaurd teams heads up the resistance.(ooc you can be on w/e side you like but no exorbantally porweful charters and no guns, this is like a mideva thing like gladiators i guess so bows yea, crossbows yes but no muskets or that jazz, post your char's name or team name if you want and state aligance) Setting now----- the last large town not under the controal of the emproior is now under seige and the walls have been broken
